I ordered it in (using my local store) they were able to get the bike in stock / in store, and despite saying 1-2 weeks, it came within 3days!!!

My parents picked it up last sunday, but from what they say it requires some building...

I can't comment on the bike itself as i am at uni atm (this bike will be used for uni use) but will let you know what its like once it is all put together (in about 1 + 1/2 weeks)

its ok for the price.

i only bought it to use at uni, it is a nice looking bike, but it uses cheap components, the front suspension isn't up to much, the handle bars aren't great, and i dont like grip shift gears.

but cant complain for the price, at least i can say i have a land rover

Ok slightly off topic but I had looked at this one myself and almost bought (slightly too short for the 18" bike though) but difficult to tell from the spec on the website exactly what was on offer. My neighbour has a Landrover (not the bike) which sat for 6 weeks before he drove it. In that time he polished it every day (including when it had been raining and was forecast to rain heavily for the rest of the day) - I almost bought the bike just to park outside my house too (despite it being too large to ride comfortably).
OK folks, chatty I know but couldn't help it.
